The Hokitika Railway Station is falling into -line with many other stations throughout New Zealand, in the adoption of a beautifying, as well ns a progressive scheme-, namely, the laying out "of a- railway garden reserve. The benefit herein has keen evidenced in other centra where the sombre appearance of the stations and yards are relieved by the beauty and attraction of tliese garde’’-s. The work in Hokitika will be undertaken by the unemployed at the approach to the station from -Stafford And AVAd Streets. In most .inst o nceis the shrubs, flowers and plants have been, donated from nrivate gardens, and the pußhc of Hokitika, are ’nvit d to assist with the scheme by’ forwarding their contributions to the Stationniaster.
